Tread compounds fine-tuned for the sizes are molded into a symmetric pattern featuring stable shoulder blocks to enhance on-road handling and off-road traction. Open shoulders increase traction on loose surfaces and help evacuate water to improve wet traction. Independent interlocking center and intermediate blocks featuring Bridgestone's wet racing tire inspired Semi-Stealth design technology combines water evacuation in the rain with higher tread stiffness for better handling when it's dry. Two circumferential and sweeping lateral grooves also help resist hydroplaning to enhance wet traction. Stepped inside shoulder notches, saw tooth intermediate grooves and engineered sipes across the tread increase the number of biting edges to improve traction in snow.

The tire's internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced with spirally wrapped nylon to stabilize the tread area and enhance durability. Each hexagon-shaped bead is manufactured by wrapping a single strand of wire multiple times to enhance tire-to-wheel fit, improving uniformity and ride quality.
